Data Explorer

This shiny app allows the user to explore the Joyner-Boore Attenuation Data set.

Use the slider to input a range of magnitude values.

The dataset is then subset to include only data for events with the selected magnitudes.

The plot displays Acceleration vs Distance, color coded by magnitude.

The Data

Description:

This data gives peak accelerations measured at various observation stations for 23 earthquakes in California. The data have been used by various workers to estimate the attenuating affect of distance on ground acceleration.

Format:
Event - (numeric) Event Number
Mag - (numeric) Moment Magnitude
Station - (factor) Station Number
Dist - (numeric) Station-hypocenter distance (km)
Accel - (numeric) Peak acceleration (g)
